Bug Description
[Impact]
Marking gdb "Multi-arch: allowed" will allow 32-bit packages to depend on "gdb:any" and install successfully on 64-bit releases of Ubuntu from 11.04 onward
This package is a required dependency of some third party applications, such as Lotus Notes.
[Test Case]
Install a 32-bit package that depends on gdb:any and have it properly install gdb (which is multi-arch capable by nature).
[Regression Potential]
Regression minimal as this change applies to multi-arch status only. Packages can still depend on simply "gdb".
Can we make this change for precise?
